(detect and receive regularly poor)
Lock unit/detecting unit 152 is carried out the synchronous detecting to the received signal that receives by each leakage coaxial cable #1 to #3, and the difference that detects synchronization timing is as regularly poor of the reception between the leakage coaxial cable #1 to #3.The processing of lock unit/detecting unit 152 specifically describes with reference to figure 5 and Fig. 6 hereinafter.
Fig. 5 is the key diagram that leading exemplary configurations and cross-correlation operation is shown conceptive.With reference to figure 5, leading L-STF (Short Training field, Short Training Field), L-LTF (long training field, Long Training Field), L-SIG and the data (L-Data) afterwards of comprising.
In L-STF (first synchronizing signal), the cycle is that the Known signal patterns (pattern) of 0.8 μ s is repeated 10 times.
In L-LTF (second synchronizing signal), the cycle be the Known signal patterns of 3.2 μ s latter half (1.6 μ s) afterwards, this signal mode is repeated (8 μ s altogether) 2 times.Particularly, the latter half of this signal mode that is added on the head of L-LTF serves as protection at interval.
L-SIG comprises the transmission rate of the data in being included in this frame or the information the modulation scheme.This leading time-domain signal that can be used as is stored in base station 10 and the radio communications set 20 in advance.
Lock unit/detecting unit 152 is carried out cross-correlation or the auto-correlation of L-STF, thereby detects rough synchronization timing.In addition, as shown in Figure 5, lock unit/detecting unit 152 is carried out the cross-correlation of L-LTF near the detected rough synchronization timing based on L-STF, thereby the peak that detects correlation is as synchronization timing.As shown in Figure 6,152 pairs of each received signals that receives by leakage coaxial cable #1 to #3 of lock unit/detecting unit are carried out this Synchronous Processing.

In addition, the synchronization timing of each received signal of lock unit/detecting unit 152 detection leakage coaxial cable #1 to #3 is poor.For example, the poor d2 between the synchronization timing t3 of the received signal of the synchronization timing t2 of the received signal of poor d1, the leakage coaxial cable #2 between the synchronization timing t2 of the received signal of the synchronization timing t1 of the received signal of lock unit/detecting unit 152 detection leakage coaxial cable #1 and leakage coaxial cable #2 and leakage coaxial cable #3.
(sending adjustment regularly)
Basic identical from the propagation characteristic of radio communications set 20 communication path (up link) of 10 with the propagation characteristic of 10 communication paths (down link) to radio communications set 20 from the base station to the base station.Therefore, certain leakage coaxial cable that sends to from 20 pairs of radio signals of radio communications set also was considered to equal from the time that reception spent that sends to radio communications set 20 pair this radio signals of this certain leakage coaxial cable to radio signal to time that reception spent of this radio signal.
So, according to the transmission of present embodiment adjustment unit 154 poor based on by the synchronization timing of the received signal of lock unit/detecting unit 152 detected leakage coaxial cable #1 to #3 regularly, adjust regularly from the transmission of the radio signal of leakage coaxial cable #1 to #3.
For example, send regularly adjustment unit 154 can adjust in such a way send radio signal from leakage coaxial cable #1 to #3 transmission regularly, make promptly that in radio communications set 20 synchronization timing to the radio signal that will send from leakage coaxial cable #1 to #3 falls in the predetermined scope.If the scope that should be scheduled to is set to be added into the protection interlude scope of each OFDM symbol, then can suppress because the deterioration of the receiving feature that the interference between the OFDM symbol in the radio communications set 20 causes.
In addition, send regularly adjustment unit 154 and can adjust described transmissions in such a way regularly, promptly make in radio communications set 20 consistent with each other from the synchronization timing of the radio signal of leakage coaxial cable #1 to #3 transmission.The concrete example that sends regularly the processing that adjustment unit 154 carries out is described below with reference to Fig. 7.
Fig. 7 is the key diagram that the concrete example that sends regularly the processing that adjustment unit 154 carries out is shown.Particularly, Fig. 7 shows under the difference situation as shown in Figure 6 of the synchronization timing of the received signal of leakage coaxial cable #1 to #3 by the concrete example that sends regularly the processing that adjustment unit 154 carries out.
Since the synchronization timing of the received signal of leakage coaxial cable #3 in the example shown in Fig. 6 the latest, so send regularly adjustment unit 154 with leakage coaxial cable #3 to the transmission of radio signal regularly be set to be in shown in Fig. 7 before.
Then, send regularly adjustment unit 154 leakage coaxial cable #2 regularly is adjusted into the timing that the transmission of radio signal is regularly differed d2 with leakage coaxial cable #3 to the transmission of radio signal.Particularly, sending regularly adjustment unit 154 can be with by will the postponing from the radio signal that leakage coaxial cable #2 sends and the difference corresponding time of d2 of leading adding device 122 supplies, and the radio signal after will postponing is supplied to DAC 124.
In addition, send regularly adjustment unit 154 leakage coaxial cable #1 regularly is adjusted into the timing that the transmission of radio signal is regularly differed d1 with leakage coaxial cable #2 to the transmission of radio signal.Particularly, sending regularly adjustment unit 154 can be with the corresponding time of summation with difference d1 and difference d2 of will postponing from the radio signal that leakage coaxial cable #1 sends from leading adding device 122 supplies, and the radio signal after will postponing is supplied to DAC 124.
As the result who sends regularly the above-mentioned adjustment that adjustment unit 154 carries out, radio communications set 20 is consistent with each other from the synchronization timing (that is, receiving regularly) of each radio signal that leakage coaxial cable #1 to #3 receives, as Fig. 7 by shown in the lower part.Thereby, can suppress the interference between the OFDM symbol that sends from leakage coaxial cable #1 to #3 in the radio communications set 20, and improve the receiving feature of radio communications set 20.
Note, base station 10 can comprise buffer, bring in storage poor by the synchronization timing of the received signal of lock unit/detecting unit 152 detected leakage coaxial cable #1 to #3 at each the other side communication, and send regularly adjustment unit 154 and can adjust by reference buffer and send regularly.In addition because the missionary society of the synchronization timing of the received signal of leakage coaxial cable #1 to #3 changes when the other side's communication ends moves, so base station 10 can each when the other side's communication ends receives the content of update buffer.
(receiving adjustment regularly)
Receive regularly adjustment unit 156 and adjust of the supply of the received signal of leakage coaxial cable #1 to #3 to lock unit/detecting unit 152 based on the difference of lock unit/detecting unit 152 detected synchronization timings.For example, receive regularly adjustment unit 156 and carry out adjustment in such a way: make that the synchronization timing of received signal of leakage coaxial cable #1 to #3 is consistent with each other.The concrete example that receives regularly the processing that adjustment unit 156 carries out is described below with reference to Fig. 8.
Fig. 8 is the key diagram that the concrete example that receives regularly the processing that adjustment unit 156 carries out is shown.In the example depicted in fig. 8, the reception of leakage coaxial cable #1 regularly the earliest, difference between the reception timing of leakage coaxial cable #1 and the reception regularly of leakage coaxial cable #2 is d1, and the difference between the reception regularly of the reception of leakage coaxial cable #2 timing and leakage coaxial cable #3 is d2.
In this case, because the reception of leakage coaxial cable #3 regularly the latest, the received signal former state of leakage coaxial cable #3 is supplied to lock unit/detecting unit 152 so receive regularly adjustment unit 156.
On the other hand, receiving regularly the synchronization timing of the received signal of adjustment unit 156 leakage coaxial cable #2 is set to consistent with the synchronization timing of the received signal of leakage coaxial cable #3.Particularly, receiving regularly adjustment unit 156 can be with the reception constant time lag and difference corresponding time of d2 of leakage coaxial cable #2, and the received signal after will postponing is supplied to lock unit/detecting unit 152.
Similarly, receiving regularly the synchronization timing of the received signal of adjustment unit 156 leakage coaxial cable #1 is set to consistent with the synchronization timing of the received signal of leakage coaxial cable #3.Particularly, receiving regularly adjustment unit 156 can be with the reception constant time lag of leakage coaxial cable #1 and the corresponding time of summation of difference d1 and difference d2, and the received signal after will postponing is supplied to lock unit/detecting unit 152.
As the result who receives regularly the above-mentioned adjustment that adjustment unit 156 carries out, the synchronization timing of each received signal of leakage coaxial cable #1 to #3 is consistent with each other.In other words, it is regularly consistent with each other to constitute the supply of OFDM symbol of received signal of leakage coaxial cable #1 to #3 respectively.Notice that lock unit/detecting unit 152 can be after adjusting feeds back to the difference of detected synchronization timing and receives timing adjustment unit 156.
